boat, motor and trailer
Hey guys, I was told by my wife's granddad to sell his boat, trailer and motor. I have no clue what to start asking for it, but I do know that the motor is kind of sought after by some duck hunters.
The boat and traielr is nothing special, but it looks liek one of them yankee boats with a flat bottom, and pointy nose, and very hig sides. The motor is a very clean, 1994 (I think), 25hp Suzuki, 3 cylinder, long shaft motor. It runs GREAT and has no problems that I can find. I am going to take it out on the water this weekend and open her up and see what she will do.
Any input from you guys on a starting asking price would be nice.

What is the model numbers for your suzuki 25? My duck hunting buddy has a 3 cylinder 25 and it will fly. If it's a 94 the average NADA depending on which model 25 is $500-$600. Like I said there were 3-4 different models listed, so the others may be worth a little more. Just googled it on NADA.COM

LM,
ANY 25hp that runs is worth $500. ANY boat that don't leak is worth $250. ANY trailer that's road worthy and has a clear title is worth $250.
Now for add ons, you're right on the duck hunters liking those 3cyl motors. It being a long shaft isn't preferable, but is OK. This time of year you should be able to get $1500 for just the motor. 2 weeks before duck season, probably $2000.
Don't short sell it unless it's in the way or quick cash is needed. $2500- $2750 would be the lowest I'd even consider taking for it if was in my back yard. Probably start @ around 3 grand if everything works on the trailer and $3250 if there's anything special (high sides/seats/lights/livewell/no leaks) with the boat.
I'll give ya $500 for it if you're wanting to move it pretty quick.

Motor is gonna make it worth a little more. You can find them on craigslist 16 to 1800. I would do a search on there to see the value. You are correct that the motor is wanted by duckhunters and they are a crazy bunch. They may give you alot more as clean as it is.

post this oin the arkansas flyway forum on the Duck Hunter's Refuge and it will get top dollar. Probably worth more there than anywhere. electric start will add dollars to the price.
Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.
